Abstract excerpt
Heading date (HD) and panicle length (PL) are important traits that affect rice breeding and are controlled by pleiotropic genes. Some alleles associated with HD and PL from wild relatives might differ from those in cultivated rice. In this study, a main effect HD quantitative trait locus from wild rice, qHD7.2, was identified using a chromosomal segment substitution line (CSSL) population. First, qHD7.2 was...
